Dr Myra Poon is a Paediatric Endocrinologist who sees children with growth, puberty, and hormone concerns. She works at Northern Beaches Paediatrics, located at Suite 7, Level 6, Northern Beaches Hospital, 105 Frenchs Forest Road West, Frenchs Forest, NSW 2086. Her clinic is in the Northern Beaches area of Sydney, Australia. This makes it easier for families in the Frenchs Forest, Dee Why, Manly, and surrounding suburbs to access specialist care for kids.
Dr Poon focuses on diabetes management for children, thyroid disorders in kids, growth and development assessments, and nutritional counseling for children. These services help families understand health changes in growing children and plan the best steps for care. Her work in diabetes helps families learn how to manage blood sugar, plan meals, and stay active in daily life. For thyroid problems, she helps detect and treat issues like thyroid hormones that affect energy, growth, and mood. Growth assessments help check if a child is growing along typical lines, and she uses nutrition counseling to support healthy eating habits for kids.
Her approach to patient care is friendly and clear. She explains medical ideas in simple ways, so parents and children can understand what is happening and why certain steps are recommended. She values listening to families, answering questions, and working together to make plans that fit everyday life. She also stays up to date with the latest guidelines and best practices in pediatric endocrinology, which means she keeps learning so care stays current. For families needing more help, she collaborates with a team at Northern Beaches Paediatrics and the hospital. This teamwork helps coordinate tests, follow-up visits, and any extra services the child needs.
For families in the Sydney area, choosing Dr Myra Poon can offer continuity of care in a trusted setting. Her work earns respect in the community for clear communication, careful follow-through, and a careful, patient-first approach. Parents can feel confident knowing they have a dedicated paediatric endocrinology expert guiding their child’s health journey, with a strong focus on growth, development, and overall well-being in Australian healthcare.
We saw Dr Poon at Northern Beaches Hospital for our son's type 1 diabetes management. she explained everything clearly, gave us practical tips, and made the clinic visits feel hopeful rather than overwhelming. The plan she gave us has made glucose control much easier at home.
My daughter was really struggling with a thyroid issue, but Dr Poon took the time to listen and explained the treatment options in plain language. We felt supported every step of the way and the follow‑ups have been spot on.
We attended a growth and development assessment for our eight‑year‑old. Dr Poon was gentle, patient, and made the whole process engaging for our child. Left the appointment with a clear plan and extra confidence about the path ahead.
Fantastic service from Dr Poon. Her nutrition advice for our picky eater was practical and realistic for busy families in Frenchs Forest. We’ve seen steady improvements in growth and overall wellbeing.
Relieved to finally have a paediatric endocrinologist who speaks in terms a parent can understand. The team at Northern Beaches Hospital provided excellent care for my child's thyroid management and routine checks have been thorough.
We felt listened to from the first appointment. Dr Poon mapped out a clear nutrition and diabetes plan, and the resources she gave us have been invaluable for managing our son’s day‑to‑day needs.
If you’re in the Northern Beaches area, Dr Myra Poon is worth booking. Very reassuring, with practical steps for growth concerns and ongoing endocrine care for our daughter. Highly recommend.
